# Version Manager for Cordova* Software
This tool will help you install and use multiple versions of Cordova. We create a folder .cvm and install the versions in there.
## Installation
Use NPM* for installation
```
npm install -g version-manager-cordova-software
```
## Commands
```
./bin/cvm
list - list available covdova versions installed
install [5.1.1] - Install a cordova version
uninstall [5.1.1] - Uninstall a cordova version
use [5.1.1] - Switch to a specific version of cordova
version - List current version of Cordova
remote - List available remote versions of cordova to install
```
```
cvm install 5.1.1 # install 5.1.1
cvm use 5.1.1 # use 5.1.1
cvm use system # use the version installed via npm
```
## shell profile entry
You must add an entry to your shell so our Cordova script is called *before* the Cordova commands installed by npm.
Please add the following to your shell profile (e.g .bash_profile) and then run 'source .bash_profile'
```
export PATH="$HOME/.cvm:$PATH"
```
## Windows users
If you are using a tool like cygwin* or gitbash* follow the above instructions. If you are using the windows* command prompt, add an entry to your system path variable. Make sure it is *before* your entry to node_modules
```
c:\users\myaccount\.cvm;c:\users\myaccount\AppData\roaming\npm
```
## How it works
We create a $HOME/.cvmrc file that stores the Cordova version you want to use. All the versions are installed in $HOME/.cvm/_version_ so they can be run.
We also have a new Cordova file that intercepts any calls and dispatches it to the correct version you've chosen in cvm. All arguments are passed through, we simply pick a different install of Cordova to execute.
